American rock band LCD Soundsystem’s ‘oh baby‘ was played on the first episode of the new FX on Hulu drama mini-series A Teacher last night — A Teacher, Season 1, Episode 1.
The song was heard at the beginning of the episode as Claire is driving and again over the end credits.
LCD Soundsystem’s is the third single from the band’s fourth studio album American Dream. An album that was released via DFA and Columbia record labels in 2017, seven years after the band broke up and then got back together.
The album was a huge surprise for fans at the time, and one that was incredibly welcome.
American Dream also ended up being a massive hit for the indie rock band. It was their first album to make it to #1 on the Billboard 2oo chart and to also top the Top Rock Albums chart.
It went on to be named as one of the best albums of the year by a slew of music critics, and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album.
‘Tonite‘, the second single from the album, won a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording.
In other words, yes, getting back together was one of the best decisions the members of LCD Soundsystem ever made.
LCD Soundsystem’s ‘oh baby‘ also came with a superb music video (watch below) directed by Rian Johnson (Star Wars: The Last Jedi), and starring Sissy Spacek and David Strathairn no less.
The two iconic actors play an elderly couple who create a teleporter, but then the wife is shot by two men who break into their house. (article continues below…)
